Abstract
Venus imaging in the near-IR and UV reveals evolving cloud patterns at different altitudes. Previous missions have had a variety of orbital geometries and imaging cadences - polar in the case of Pioneer Venus and Venus Express, but (highly) elliptical in the case of Akatsuki. Image resolution of course depends on instantaneous distance; image cadence is typically limited by datarate but can be influenced by other factors. maging opportunities from future missions will be discussed where high image cadences may be possible : these can access timescales of cloud evolution not previously observed.
